Market outcomes
| Bitcoin Up or Down - May 24, 10:15PM-10:20PM ET | 0% YES | 100% NO |
Bitcoin's price movement will be assessed over a five-minute window on 24 May from 22:15 to 22:20 ET, with settlement determined by Chainlink's BTC/USD data feed rather than spot exchange prices. The current 0% implied probability on Polymarket's order book reflects either minimal trading activity in this specific micro-timeframe contract or a consensus that meaningful price discovery is unlikely within such a compressed window. Five-minute Bitcoin moves typically correlate with broader market microstructure rather than fundamental catalysts, making these contracts sensitive to order flow dynamics and technical positioning across major venues.
Historical precedent suggests that ultra-short-duration Bitcoin contracts rarely attract significant liquidity unless tied to scheduled events or data releases. The 0% probability reading may indicate the order book has received no meaningful bids, a common pattern for sub-ten-minute resolution windows where execution costs and slippage often exceed expected returns. Comparable five-minute contracts on other assets show similar probability clustering at extremes when trading volume remains sparse.
Traders monitoring this window should note that any significant catalyst—regulatory announcements, macroeconomic data, or large institutional transactions—would need to occur precisely within the settlement period to influence resolution. Chainlink's BTC/USD feed aggregates multiple price sources with slight latency, potentially creating discrepancies versus real-time spot prices during volatile periods. The settlement deadline of 25 May 02:20 UTC provides ample time for price discovery before final determination.
This market settles from the official outcome published at https://data.chain.link/streams/btc-usd. A proposer submits the final result to the UMA optimistic oracle on Polygon; the two-hour dispute window closes and payouts clear in USDC.
For this market, the resolution date is 25 May 2026. A UMA proposer can submit the outcome from that moment; the two-hour dispute window closes at , and assuming no counter-claim is staked, winning USDC clears to trader balances by approximately .
If a dispute is filed inside the two-hour window, the outcome escalates to UMA token-holder voting, which extends settlement by roughly 48 hours. Because this market resolves from a publicly verifiable feed (https://data.chain.link/streams/btc-usd), the probability of dispute is materially lower than the overall 0.5% PolyGram baseline — most disputes occur on markets with ambiguous wording or non-public resolution sources.

Your maximum loss is your stake — winning YES (or NO) shares pay $1.00 each at resolution. With this market's current book depth ($0 of resting liquidity), a $50 order should fill with single-cent slippage at the displayed mid-price.
PolyGram charges 0% house edge — no spread mark-up, no rake on winnings, no withdrawal fees beyond network gas. The platform earns exclusively from optional features (copy-trade boosts, advanced order types, the yield vault on idle USDC); the trading surface itself is at-cost.
The mechanics for trading "Bitcoin Up or Down - May 24, 10:15PM-10:20PM ET" are the same as any other PolyGram event contract. Each YES share resolves to $1 if the event happens, or $0 if it doesn't. The current price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the market's probability estimate, set live by the order book.
$66K in lifetime turnover and $0 of resting liquidity puts this market in the above the median by volume for up or down contracts on PolyGram. Order-book depth is thin — large orders may need to be split across the book or executed as limit orders.
Last 24 hours alone saw $66K in turnover, well above the lifetime daily-average for this market — a clear sign of news catalysing trader activity right now.
The market has been open for under a month — fresh enough that information asymmetry remains a real factor.
Higher-volume markets tend to have tighter spreads and faster price discovery — meaning the displayed YES/NO percentages are more likely to reflect the true crowd-implied probability rather than a single trader's directional view.
As of today, traders on Polymarket price this outcome at 0%. The number updates continuously as the order book clears. PolyGram mirrors the same live odds with locale-aware formatting and USDC settlement.

Prediction-market positions can lose 100% of staked capital. Outcomes are uncertain by definition — historical accuracy of crowd-implied probabilities is high in aggregate but not for any single market. PolyGram does not provide investment advice. Trade only with capital you can afford to lose. For "Bitcoin Up or Down - May 24, 10:15PM-10:20PM ET", the considerations above apply directly — Trade size should reflect the binary nature of the payoff: even a 70% probability event resolves NO 30% of the time, so any single position can lose 100% of staked capital.
Regulatory status varies by jurisdiction. Germany, the United States, and most EU countries treat Polymarket-style event contracts under one of three frameworks: financial derivative, gambling product, or unregulated novel asset. Consult local counsel before trading.
